Ymaguara

Nature, nature and more nature.

The spectacular panoramic views and intact landscapes of La Gomera are transformed when they are experienced and conveyed by those who love the island. Guided tours become one of the most interesting alternatives of sustainable tourism thanks to their scenic and didactic attraction.

The experience brings together elements of the agricultural landscape such as rock faces, terraces, vegetation and animal species with the historical and cultural aspects which are characteristic of the island.
